Or put it another way - it’s 3 losses from 17 for the year. You could argue it’s only 2 losses given one was in the League Cup with a weakened team against Chelsea.
We aren’t playing super football but we are sitting only 2 points behind the high flying all conquering City in the league and we have progression from our Champions League group in our own hands. Not a bad place to be.
Alternatively you could struggle against good and bad teams and be sitting 7 points and a ton of goal difference off 4th.
From personal experience I think it’s time you started enjoying your mid table mediocrity. You might be there for a while yet if the Special One continues to drive your club into the ground!
I can live with us finishing second to the greatest team to ever play in the Premier League. I’ve never seen better football, or a more dominating side than this City squad.
September, October and November = about 10 Liverpool posts a day. They all disappear by Xmas.
By around Feb-March this thread turns to 99% Man U fans self flagellating. Interspersed with the odd bit of Tottenham and Arsenal.
Lol. Leicester and farken Blackburn Rovers have had more success in the league over the last 25 years and you dare call yourself big boys. Start winning trophies if you want to be taken seriously
I came around awhile ago that we are mid table garbage and have to accept it. The only saving grace is that whilst we are floundering you aren’t reaping the rewards.
as a United fan- i have seen enough success to last a lifetime. If we have to live in the mid table wilderness for a while before we get back to the top, I’m cool with that.
The title is Man city’s to lose. Their squad is just way too deep for anyone compete against consistently.
Stallion has been quiet in this thread this season.
I know they aren’t going well but he still usually chimes in on all things Hammers no matter how they are going.
Bit sad how long I’ve been here, I can remember when this thread circa ‘04 was full of Lozin Must and Nandoz talking about Leeds.
chelsea’s best player was jimm floyd hasselbaink, long before Man City were any good, and every EPL defence was required to have a mediocre Australian (Danny tiatto at the sky blues, neill at blackburn, lazaridis at Brummie, was Hayden foxe at leicester or something?)
Foxe was at West Ham for a while, Lazaridis was there as well before he went to Birmingham. Kewell and Viduka were with Leeds, but they also had Jacob Burns and Paul Okon had a short spell there. Who else? Popovic at Palace, Muscat played in the PL with Wolves from memory.
